Wearing Red for a Reason

Employees raise awareness of women’s heart health

Tufts Health Plan honored National Wear Red Day on Feb. 7, 2020, to raise awareness of women’s heart health and bring attention to the leading cause of death for women in the United States — heart disease.

Both male and female employees participated by wearing red and capturing a photo with their colleagues. The event was sponsored by our Women Together business resource group.

Women and men may experience heart attack symptoms differently. Women may have less recognizable symptoms, including pain in the stomach, jaw, neck or back, nausea or shortness of breath. Learn more about the signs of a heart attack in women.
